Lords of the Rings

[filteredglitch]

i have no training, but i can do most of those moves... the only difference is i can only do them under water. ;)

[mjh34mjh34]

How do you get started training on rings?

[jukaromi]

tambien falta Arthur Zanetti BRA

[miki4630201]

Whats the time of the song

[secar3]

eeeeeeeeh. did somebody else just wanted to watch vids from THE lord of the rings?

[TheRogueMonk]

can someone help me get arms like that? how do they workout?

they all have great long head of the biceps

[Sinjid142]

@TheRogueMonk if you want a similar body you have to do artistic gymnastics or do rings training

[TheRogueMonk]

can someone help me get arms like that? how do they workout?

[tpeterb]

01:39 to 02:17 is pure power and balance!

[XRePete]

Yovtchev = sick strength

[afromusician1]

Albert FTW !

[Zver4eko]

Nice! Lord of the rings =) I'm just waiting him to look at the rings and say "My precious".

[jp500ayno]

Albert Azaryan has swag on the rings, its all in the mustache :3

[petiofifi]

Yovchev!!!!!



[trozzyfreestyle94]

Chechi, stop.

[kayper54]

Nah... the guy playin' to the crowd is the best. HE's the one who makes look not only easy, but FUN!

I need a vicodin....

[PeopleOfAr]

this man is a pioneer, you can't compare him to current champs. He was the main man in his own time, he even invented moves that are still very popular today and bear his name in remembrance. You guys need to put things in perspective instead of bashing a legend. It's easy to do that for the current guys as well you know. With the drugs and steroids they use... Everyone deserves respect and certainly this man who made an impact on the sport in his time.

[shirkavand]

fucking amazing....

[jaisklaaa]

Dong Zhen and Chen Yibing are the bests! if you say s.th. other... then you've no idea of gymnastics

[quchitxa]

Albert Azarian is the Best

[bknives]

That Fatboy Slim song is so fucking played out... It's so phoney - epic. Great clip though

[dicidoff]

Best vid on YouTube!

[urbancityrun]

zoizo Yuri is the best

[Axxis171]

All of these athletes are AMAZING!

[preslavlorda]

Jordan Jovchev THE BEST !!!!

[Thejordyboy14]

Yuri van Gelder is THE  real champion

[gnostie]

The question 'who's the strongest' doesn't really make much sense. To quote Arkaev, the gymnast is judged on what he does and how he does it. That said, what you see in the combinations at the competitions isn't necessarily the max these men are capable of on one hand, and on the other, each person's trainer sets them up with a program that brings out the best and conceals as much as possible the weaknesses of the athlete. Have a look at Arkaev, Suchilin, How To Create Champions, it's relevant.

[14sockz]

SICK AS HELLL.............MUSTACHE 

[Bjarktube]

NEEDS MORE BALANDIN

[MNgymnast25]

I will have to say Jordan Jovtchev is the true lord of the rings. Yuri Van Gelder is great too, but he was caught with performance inhancing drugs at one competition. He is a cheater in my book.

[moefro777]

@MNgymnast25 van gelder admitted to recreational cocaine use. It's not a performance enhancing drug...

[Dalamen]

8:09, I think Yuri Van Gelder is one of the best ever. So much control and power! Plus he looks like a Super Nintendo Street Fighter.

[southoreast]

@Dalamen Man! I thought i was the only one who thought that. He greatly resembles Guile, doesn't he? lol!

[Hwaigon]

6:32 Priest !!! see the trailer

[SecondGraphics]

4:55 - show off

[SecondGraphics]

chechi's cross is so perfect

[mensacyclist]

FWIW, the plural of monkey is monkIES.......not monkeys.

[Bajinjo]

Yuri Chechi

-1993 World Champion

-1994 World Champion

-1995 World Champion

-1996 World Champion

-1996 Olympic Gold

-1997 World Champion

[nubbsy6]

@Bajinjo nuff said..

[belenyeriruel]

very good

[alacranmontoya]

these dudes take very seriously the quote "don't confuse the impossible with what hasn't been done yet"

[dicidoff]

Best vid on youtube!

[Ac1DGoD]

strong men, do women ever do the rings? I haven't seen it

[priverichardd]

Jovtchev, rules! Great video montage dude :-)

[Artwass]

ALBERT AZARYAN old school best , Jordan Jovtchev new school best

and very good pic 08:11

[Pakerek4444]

drum and bass- terminator style

[ahmednabil]

8:10 , victorian cross on tanks muzzles !

[alacranmontoya]

human body seems has o limits! lets go out and train people!

[vul4ogan]

Jordan Jovtchev is by my opinion the best

[tomicgym]

great video.But i suggest you to put to the top of the rings the two time olympic champion Dimosthenis Tampakos.

[ApolytonGP]

Bilozerchev doesn't belong in that group. His inverted cross was well high and the planche...just fugly!

[Maddolis]

The amount of muscle and fitness required for this event is unreal- one of my favourite olympic events for sure.

[rbaleksandar]

They are all superb athletes. Stop arguing who's the best etc. etc. Just enjoy watching them for this is pure art.

[GARIKJAN1986]

ALBERT AZARYAN GREATTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT.......for­ever

[WildCatBoxing]

Always remember to honor Albert Azaryan is the King of the Rings.

[Rtype1000]

OMG, ultimate in balance and strenght.

LP

[DrAlexisOlson]

It really bothers me how Yuri Chechi always has the rings turned in on his L, but apparently gets no deductions for it.

[omxpablo19]

currently? yuri van geldar is not the best. yibing has so much power and control. don't get me wrong, i like van geldars routines, but yibing has him beat.

[LunethxX]

Yuri Van Gelder is the best!

[gggoppp]

Yovchev is the BEST !!!

[rezges]

Absolutely amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[d60dfath3r]

jovtchev hands down

[Piknockyou2]

song name

hey uploader and rest of the world, can somebody please tell me the drum and bass track at the end?

thank you

peace/love

[voytek]

right here right now by fatboy slim and State of Mind - Sunking =]

[theweedboxer]

the cross of Yuri Chehci is INSANE

[23forever23]

Hahaha... That's funny..

.

.

Great video.!

Chechi's "Chechi" (Fwd uprise fwd salto) is beautiful.

[WildCatBoxing]

saltfan2,

turkish mammal, learn to respect the greatest athletes. Out of turkey come steers and queers but that doesn't mean you should jealous and hate others because nothing good comes out of your wasteland. Sheltering in Norway will not hide your true and beastly identity, and civilization will not humanize either.

[pecosbull]

cristo, l'esercizio di chechi è proprio da prendere ed insegnare nelle scuole!!! ma non lo dico per nazionalismo: per me è proprio l'esercizio perfetto!!!

[jamchew1982]

yibing is a freaking beast... unreal moves.

[uihuiuiui]

jovtchev is an awesome old man :)

[maxis4real87]

chechi's the best

[soulofone]

Great Video thank you for making that I was glued to the screen nice job man.

[GeoffTaucer]

Beautiful. Absolutely beautiful.

[buignerry]

You can not ask "who is the strongest" all of them were great,in that day in that given moment each one of them for a few minutes were better than any other gymnasts in the world.

All of them are Champions ,- none of them worse or better than the other one.

[Fizniperal]

The last 6 are clearly the best, even considering the athletes are now competing. But Yibing Chen is on another level.

[buignerry]

Thank you .One of them Csollány Szilveszter, Hungarian.

[vartanto]

Congratulations for your light. I fill admiration of any gymnast and I hate challenges.

[NiGtMeAr]

AWESOME one of the best vids in youtube.

p.d. Albert Azaryan is by far the lord of the rings.

[Minaccia6890]

What is this song..?

[CosNaProgu]

That is by far the best ring compilation I have seen, thanks man

[allroundpower]

Too much power. If there is such a concept. 5*s

[Maryme1000]

Jury chechi is the best 5 world champion

[katccf]

Chen Yibing is the Lord of the Rings.

[happaning]

man it's crazy how much better people have gotten on the rings since back in the day. I love old school ballers like Azaryan, but guys these days are so strong. Love the vid.

[leonidarizzo]

Do you think they got better or their routines changed?

[BatSvilko]

WOW! what an amazing video, my skin thrilled!!!

enjoyed every minute!

I didn't knew that that in the 50s there were so many strong people!

And you could add the dude which invented the inverted cross in 1938

thank's too for being objective and giving props to all of the athletes and even recognising Jordan Jovtchev for being winner in 2004 (where after watching all the qualified mens in my humble opinion Tampakos didn't deserved even to be between the first 3, but thats other question)

[3sets]

Jordan Jovtchev For so many years on top of the world.

[otinanaiful]

Where is Dhmis8enis Tampakos men???

[yuancappe]

It's a thief!!!!!!!!!!!

[glcb7]

yuri chechi

[gymfreak0]

Albert Azaryan is my coaches dad!

xD

[bboyroyds]

best gym video i've ever seen.

Van Gelder is a tank

[RioXavier]

Never again I will lift another dumbell.

[omxpablo19]

5:41 its so perfect.

[natcomber13]

Agreed. One of the best inverted crosses ever.

[eduardomartano]

only two word......JURY CHECHI

[karlng167]

What's so special about Chen Yibing is that when he performs on ring, you won't see much vibration in the strings and all his moves are so damn crisp.

[G33314Lucas]

i didn't know Jordan Jovtchevs name is spelled like yordan,ive always pronounced it (jor dan yoht chev,gues thats what i get for looking at a bulgarian name in English

[G33314Lucas]

that picture of yuri is awsome!

[G33314Lucas]

Alexander dityatin looks like Arnold schwarzenegger

[dd8yf]

An Azarian is not a front lever to cross.

Pineda = through momentary front lever to cross

Azarian = slow felge backward to cross

Nakayama = through momentary back lever to cross

[See 2009-2012 Code of Points.]

Nice video though.

[Vergine8705]

Albert Azaryan Lord of the rings!!!

Living Legend in Gymnastic!!!!

[MicrosoftIndesign]

hey give me the name of these songs please please Dude!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[ArmyOfZenMonkeys]

Fatboy Slim - Right Here, Right Now

State of Mind - Sunking

[MicrosoftIndesign]

oh man thank you so much

[johnseeley]

Nice Video. The false grip got more pronounced as the video progressed. I don't like it. Also it's cool to see the evolution in hand grips. Albert Azaryan...NO GRIPS, NO FALSE GRIP! Amazing.

[Tigerchoke]

i agree,its sad....they can actually let go of the rings nowadays,their forearms rest on the rings....that being said azaryan with his long arms and normal grip must have had forearms made of adamant

[omxpablo19]

2 questions.

i know false grip helps the forearms, but id imagine without false grip your wrists would have to be alot more solid. does it make it that much more difficult on the wrist?

2. why dont current gymnasts cut the false grip or resting forearm bullshit and just strengthen their forearms?

[johnseeley]

1 False/High grip is GENERALLY used to get better leverage. EX. It's easier to to a iron cross from your wrist position that it is from first knuckle position.

2. It's like steriods in Proffesional Body Building. Everyone should do it to be competitive.

Guys like Albert Azaryan were so strong that they actually put a vertical inward tilt on the rings when doing a cross..like a pipe wrench effect on the ring.

[omxpablo19]

okay, thanks.

[Rasvatri]

Jordan Jovtchev

[hisonnij]

jordan jovchev and chen yibeng for the tie. jordan has that inverted bounce to maltese. chen is just perfect. geez

[shattersidvik]

Plange press to hand stand is easy... I did one on parallel bars at a weight of 220 lbs. Of course, I hurt myself but still...

[Rasvatri]

You forgot Jurgen Van eetvelt :D

[MicrosoftIndesign]

yuri van geldar.

[AndrewTraceur]

I lost it when I saw Chen Yibing's routine to win gold in 2008 but to me, Yuri Van Gelder is Lord of the Rings.

[marcxopoco]

Albert Azaryan, greatest male gymnast ever.

[handstanddude]

Very nice compilation....!

[SmurphTheGerbil]

I would have to say Yuri Van Gelder.

Im a pommel fan myself

[SmurphTheGerbil]

Its great to see how the sport has progressed through the years. I dont like the new rules though

[belzebu123]

yuri chechi O_o

[bramcas]

yuri van gelder and kai wen tan/kevin tan

[shagy13]

Alexander Dityatin won 3 gold 4 silver and 1 bronze for a total of eight. Still one of the greatest showing of talent ever but not eight golds.

[ArmyOfZenMonkeys]

Thanks! Ive corrected the description

[lordn3m3sis]

Yuri Chechi of course :)

Proud to be italian!!!!!!!!!

[go3gabor]

To my mind Szilveszter Csollany better.

[MOMOMOLY123]

I think Chen Yibing is the best!!!

[akawhippy]

Yuri chechi has always been my favorite male gymnast.

[ke1ta2gi3ku4do5]

oh on the rings i think chenyibing and jordan are the strongest. but my fav gymnast alltime is yang wei

[jonshaft00]

Jordan Jovtchev is the strongest. Danny Rodriguez should also be on the list.

[ArmyOfZenMonkeys]

Danny is going to be world champion in the future!

[Fizniperal]

one of the best video ever

[jgaides]

u should make a montage like this with all the events

[kane123369]
